Crosslinked polyolefin foams unique combination of mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties makes it an ideal replacement for traditional foams such as EPDM rubber, polyurethane and PVC.

Advantages of Softlon foams.

• Wide density range: (25 to 200kg/m3 ).
• Wide thickness range: (between 1.3mm & 50mm).
• Flame retardant characteristics to meet FMVSS 302, and UL 94 HF-1 requirements.
• Light weight – up to 84% lighter than PVC foam.
• Wide working temperature (-80°C up to 130°C depending on type).
• Inertness against most chemicals including fuels, oils, brake fluids and cooling liquids.
• Good weathering resistance and ageing behaviour.
• Good cushioning characteristics.
• Fine regular closed cell structure with two process skins.
• Nearly no water absorption, low water vapour transmission.
• Low fogging values.
• Excellent thermoplastic properties, particularly vacuum and press-forming.
• Good thermal and noise insulation properties.
• Odourless and non-toxic.
• Ecologically and chemically neutral.
• Safe disposal by dumping or incineration in the event of recycling not being possible
